If completed, the merger will result in a combined publicly traded company that will focus on advancing the TriFan 600 to market, as well as continuing to offer Inpixon’s real-time location systems (RTLS) technology to manufacturing and warehousing facilities for streamlined operations, greater efficiency, and improved safety. The enterprise value of XTI was ascertained by an independent financial advisory firm to be within the range of $252 million and $343 million.1 Additional information is available on the merger information portal at https://xti-inpx-merger.com/.
“With the support of our shareholders, we are thrilled to announce the approval of this business combination,” said Nadir Ali, CEO of Inpixon. “This strategic transaction will not only deliver XTI stockholders securities of a publicly traded company but it also ensures that Inpixon shareholders can continue to hold a significant stake in a company that we believe is creating a revolutionary solution for point-to-point air travel. With this combination, we’re looking to capture the vast opportunities in the alternative aircraft market, a sector we believe is ripe with innovation and expansion potential. The TriFan 600 airplane combines the comfort, speed, and range of similar conventional business aircraft with the flexibility, convenience, and pinpoint transportation of a helicopter. The feedback from the market has been overwhelmingly positive as illustrated by the conditional pre-orders2 for more than 700 TriFan 600s, which would equate to potential gross revenues of more than $7 billion3 upon delivery.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this press release, including statements regarding the benefits of the Proposed XTI Transaction and the anticipated timing of the completion of the Proposed XTI Transaction, are forward-looking statements.
Some of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words, including “may,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “plan,” “targets,” “projects,” “could,” “would,” “continue,” “forecast” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar expressions. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based upon estimates, forecasts, and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Inpixon and its management, and XTI and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain and many factors may cause the actual results to differ materially from current expectations which include, but are not limited to:
- the risk that the Proposed XTI Transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Inpixon’s securities;
- the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Proposed XTI Transaction, including the adoption of the merger agreement by the shareholders of Inpixon;
- the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement;
- the adjustments permitted under the merger agreement to the exchange ratio that could result in XTI shareholders or Inpixon shareholders owning less of the post-combination company than expected;
- the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Proposed XTI Transaction on Inpixon’s and XTI’s business relationships, performance, and business generally;
- the risks that the Proposed XTI Transaction disrupts current plans of Inpixon and XTI and potential difficulties in Inpixon’s and XTI’s employee retention because of the Proposed XTI Transaction;
- the outcome of any legal proceedings instituted against XTI or against Inpixon related to the merger agreement or the Proposed XTI Transaction;
- failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed XTI Transaction;
- the inability to meet and maintain the listing of Inpixon’s securities (or the securities of the post-combination company) on Nasdaq;
- the risk that the price of Inpixon’s securities (or the securities of the post-combination company) may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the highly competitive industries in which Inpixon and XTI operate;
- the inability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the Proposed XTI Transaction, and identify and realize additional opportunities;
- variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws, regulations, technologies that may impose additional costs and compliance burdens on Inpixon and XTI’s operations, global supply chain disruptions and shortages;
- national security tensions, and macro-economic and social environments affecting Inpixon and XTI’s business and changes in the combined capital structure;
- the risk that XTI has a limited operating history, has not yet manufactured any non-prototype aircraft or delivered any aircraft to a customer, and XTI and its current and future collaborators may be unable to successfully develop and market XTI’s aircraft or solutions, or may experience significant delays in doing so;
- the risk that XTI is subject to the uncertainties associated with the regulatory approvals of its aircraft including the certification by the Federal Aviation Administration, which is a lengthy and costly process;
- the risk that the post-combination company may never achieve or sustain profitability;
- the risk that XTI, Inpixon and the post-combination company may be unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms to finance its operations and remain a going concern;
- the risk that the post-combination company experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations;
- the risk that XTI’s conditional pre-orders (which include conditional aircraft purchase agreements, non-binding reservations, and options) are canceled, modified, delayed or not placed and that XTI must return the refundable deposits;
- the risks relating to long development and sales cycles, XTI’s ability to satisfy the conditions and deliver on the orders and reservations, its ability to maintain quality control of its aircraft, and XTI’s dependence on third parties for supplying components and potentially manufacturing the aircraft;
- the risk that other aircraft manufacturers develop competitive VTOL aircraft or other competitive aircraft that adversely affect XTI’s market position;
- the risk that XTI’s future patent applications may not be approved or may take longer than expected, and XTI may incur substantial costs in enforcing and protecting its intellectual property;
- the risk that XTI’s estimates of market demand may be inaccurate;
- the risk that XTI’s ability to sell its aircraft may be limited by circumstances beyond its control, such as a shortage of pilots and mechanics who meet the training standards, high maintenance frequencies and costs for the sold aircraft, and any accidents or incidents involving VTOL aircraft that may harm customer confidence; and
- other risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Inpixon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”), the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods filed thereafter, and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 25, 2023, and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in XTI’s periodic reports filed pursuant to Regulation A of the Securities Act including XTI’s Annual Report on Form 1-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on July 13, 2023 (the “2022 Form 1-K”), as such factors may be updated from time to time in Inpixon’s and XTI’s filings with the SEC, the registration statement on Form S-4 and the prospectus contained therein. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made.
